"Summer job at our local paper mill has kept me disciplined because I had to be at work at 6:30 each morning. After I got
off at 3:30 each day I would partner up with some old teammates and
practice snapping. I also joined the local gym to keep the weight
program going. I helped with a few football camps held in my area. As a
redshirt freshman I have a full snapping career ahead of me. I fully
know the challenge I have to break into the lineup but have poised my
self to be ready when that time comes."
